Talk:Balloonicorn

Possible reference?

I know I'm going to sound like a broken record by saying this, but don't you think there might be a reference or two in this item's description? My gut instinct tells me there's at least 1 Charlie the Unicorn reference in there (I haven't seen the series in years) and that the mention of the unicorn being the Mayor of Pyroland might be a reference to the old TV show H.R. Pufnstuf. Can anyone else help clarify this/pitch in ideas? I'm not going to make any edits until I can confirm all references. HibiscusKazeneko 02:21, 28 June 2012 (PDT)

A question for science

If a player should have both the Balloonicorn and either the Alien Swarm Parasite or the Brainslug, and the Pyro get's an unassisted kill, which item is credited the assist? ~Sven~ 20:41, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

Just tested this with the Brainslug, the Brainslug will ALWAYS be credited with the assist if you have both the Baloonicorn and The Brainslug equipped. Could anyone test this with any other items that are able to get assists in Pyroland? Shaiyal 08:59, 13 July 2012 (PDT)

Badge Level

My Balloonicorn is level 20 and so is a friend's. Is this a set level for the item? NeoSlith 22:59, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

Yes.--Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 21:01, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

Craft Balloonicorn

Does someone already know how to craft it? Please add to the article! Shuriken 06:03, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

I think it just means you can get it from a random craft, such as the Fabricate Headgear recipe, with whatever recipe is used with misc items. --Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 21:01, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

Is Baloonicorn a balloon, or a real unicorn?

I need clarification, because it is just a balloon, right? --Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 21:16, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

100% sure it's just a balloon, given that:

• Baloonicorn;
• In-game it works like just a balloon, as in, it does not have any fancy effect or particle whatsoever;
• Valve even sells a real-life replica (at store.valvesoftware.com) that comes with a code for this item.

You forgot to sign your post. But in the context of the game, it sure acts like it's a real animal. Especially in Pyrovision and Meet the Pyro. --Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 22:18, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

I'm gonna go with "real imaginary unicorn." ~Sven~ 22:32, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

Ermagherd, I forgot indeed. There, fixed. — kill — 22:35, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

Ballonicorn Quote?

I couldn't help but notice there is no quote for ballonicirn, so I come bearing suggestions (i would do it myself, but I am fairly new, and don't know how to add audio files);

"Is-is anybody even payin' attention ta me?"

-The scout on Inflatable unicorns Stealing everyones Attention

"Thanks for the ride!"

-The scout on Unicorn Rides

"Hehey, I'm flyin'!"

-The scout on Unicorn Rides

Thanks All

Pyrovision doesn't work properly?

I'm not getting pyrovision on any class other than pyro. Is this a bug or intentional? VANCe 11:23, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
